In isosceles triangle WXY, XY is 13 inches in length and WY is 10 inches. What is the length of XZ? answer asap please

Explanation:

Notice the double tickmarks on segments WZ and ZY. This tells us the two segments are the same length. Let's say they are m units long, where m is a placeholder for a positive number.

That would mean m+m = 2m represents the length of segment WY, but that's equal to 10 as the diagram shows. We have 2m = 10 lead to m = 5 after dividing both sides by 2.

We've shown that WZ and ZY are 5 units long each. In short, we just cut that length of 10 in half.

Let's focus on triangle XYZ. This is a right triangle with legs XZ = unknown and ZY = 5. The hypotenuse is XY = 13.

We'll use the pythagorean theorem to find XZ

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

(XZ)^2 + (ZY)^2 = (XY)^2

(XZ)^2 + (5)^2 = (13)^2

(XZ)^2 + 25 = 169

(XZ)^2 = 169-25

(XZ)^2 = 144

XZ = sqrt(144)

XZ = 12

Segment XZ is 12 inches long.

an advantage of the standard deviation is that it increases as the dispersion of the data increases. e. the interquartile range is preferred when the data are not skewed or no have outliers. an advantage of the standard deviation is that it uses all the observations in its computation.
